Transcript Angles in Standard Position

Botanical Name
Narcissus 'Trigonometry'
Plant Common Name
Trigonometry Daffodil
The flowers of a Trigonometry Daffodil are of almost geometric
precision with their repeating patterns.
Repeating patterns occur in sound, light, tides, time, and nature.
To analyse these repeating, cyclical patterns, we need to study the
cyclical functions branch of trigonometry.

Coterminal angles are angles in standard position that share the
same terminal arm. They also share the same reference angle.

Positive Coterminal Angles
Counterclockwise
50° + (360°)(1) = 410°
50° + (360°)(2) = 770°
Negative Coterminal Angles 50° + (360°)(-1) = -310°
Clockwise
50° + (360°)(-2) = -670°

Coterminal Angles in General Form
By adding or subtracting multiples of one full rotation, you
can write an infinite number of angles that are coterminal
with any given angle.
θ ± (360°)n, where n is any natural number
Why must n be a natural number?

Radian Measure: Trig and Calculus
The radian measure of an angle is the ratio of arc length of a
sector to the radius of the circle.

When arc length = radius, the
angle measures one radian.
How many radians do you
think there are in one circle?

Radian Measure
Construct arcs on the
circle that are equal in
length to the radius.

Radian Measure
One radian is the measure of the central angle subtended in a
circle by an arc of equal length to the radius.
